Director: Delbert Mann

Summary: Cathy Timberlake is incensed when she is splashed with mud on her way to an interview. When the driver, Philip Shayne, gets out of his car, anger is soon replaced by love. There is one very real problem, however, while Cathy dreams of marriage, Shayne is just out for a good time.

Of Doris Day, comedian-pianist Oscar Levant once observed, 'I knew her before she was a virgin'. Indeed, playing a woman who always says 'no' proved quite profitable for the wholesome singer in a series of light comedies in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Here in THAT TOUCH OF MINK, she plays newly unemployed New York secretary Cathy Timberlake, who meets handsome and wealthy business magnate Philip Shayne (Cary Grant) when his car accidentally splatters her dress with mud. Her annoyance about her dress is vapourized by his charm, and she agrees to join him on a business trip to Baltimore. There they attend a baseball game which features amusing appearances by greats, Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris, and Yogi Berra. They stop for drinks en route to New York, where Philip impresses the young woman by giving a speech at the United Nations. Feeling that he's finally gotten past the necessary preliminaries, he asks Cathy to accompany him to Bermuda, where clearly, he hopes the relationship will reach a new plateau. If one can accept the film's outdated premise, there are some truly amusing moments in this featherweight farce.
